Fix for big space after "trans." and "Ibid."

Hello,

I just started using jurabib, but so far I think it's great! Thank you
for all your effort.

I'm using jurabib v0.6 with jox.bst and the oxford option. I noticed
that jurabib puts too much space after "trans." and "ibid.", because
LaTeX thinks these mark the end of a sentence.

Here is a fix for these two problems, at least in the places where
I've noticed it:

Hopefully someone else will find this of use!
